Summary of content (16 pages)

PAGE 1
ETC® Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Supplement to Operations Manual The following information is new for version 1.9. This document is supplemental to information in the Eos v1.7 Operations Manual, Ion v1.7 Operations Manual, and Element v1.6 User Manual and should be used in conjunction with it.
PAGE 2
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Save As Pressing [Label] or [Delete] on the console, or DELETE on an alphanumeric keyboard will remove the default show label when doing a Save As. {Manual} Flexichannel A {Manual} softkey has been added to [Flexi]. This view shows the selected channels and any channels with manual data. Playback Status Display Changes Paging in the Playback Status Display When focus is on the Playback Status Display, you can now use the paging keys to navigate in this display.
PAGE 3
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 {By Type} Palettes By Type palettes are created with 'default' channels which contain values that can be assigned to any other channel within the same fixture type. By Type palettes can also contain discrete channel values. By Type palettes will display a ‘T’ in the lower corner of the direct selects. A ‘+’ will display after the ‘T’ if there are channels stored with discrete data.
PAGE 4
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 default channel. • [Beam Palette] [3] {Cleanup} [Enter] - converts palettes created in earlier versions of Eos Family software to by type palettes. This command will use the first channel of each type as the default, and allow other channels of the same type to use that value upon recall.
PAGE 5
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Note: The major difference between {Last Ref} and {All} is that {All} will update the original reference stored in the cue, while {Last Ref} updates the last reference applied to the channel parameter. • {Break Nested} - this button now has a toggle state that does not change the update mode allowing it to be used with {Last Ref} or {All} as needed. This button will update a background cue’s preset, but breaks the reference to any palettes stored in that preset.
PAGE 6
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 About Channel While in the {Usage} screen for About Channel, if another channel is selected, you will need to hit the {Refresh Usage} button to see the information for the new channel. Releasing Intensity Master Submasters When non-intensity parameters on a intensity master submaster have been marked using the bump button, the LED on its bump button will now pulse to tell you that the non-intensity parameters have been marked.
PAGE 7
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Note: All devices must be upgraded to version 1.9 before remote software installation is available. In the ECU, go to Setting>General>Automatically Update Software to enable. Once enabled, the devices can be remotely updated with the next version of software. Devices will receive the software update from the Primary. When you install software on the Primary, the software will first be copied to its hard drive.
PAGE 8
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Softkeys The ordering for softkeys available, when no channel is selected and when channels are selected, have changed.
PAGE 9
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Note: Ion will not allow multiple Live/Blind and Playback Status Display tabs. Other displays are numbered as they are opened. Tab numbering is useful for navigating to views. From the Browser When you open a new display (such as the cue list index, group list, or patch) and it is posted in a tab view, it will open on monitor 2 if in dual monitor configuration. If the display does not open as a tab view (such as “setup” or the browser) it will open in the CIA.
PAGE 10
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 Note: Unless otherwise specified, Ion assumes that a query will apply to current output. Therefore use of the {Is In} softkey is optional. The CIA also repaints to display the available keywords and fixture types by which you can search. These can be used in defining your query criteria. As a query is defined in the command line, channels will be specified in the Live/Blind display.
PAGE 11
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 About Snapshots When you record a snapshot, aspects of the Ion user-interface, based on user-preference, are stored so that you can recall them in the future. This allows you to bring the console back to a desired state quickly. Snapshots can be used on Ion RPUs or Net3 RVIs to change what is currently displayed on the external monitors and how that information is displayed. Snapshots contents are global.
PAGE 12
ETC Supplement Eos Family v1.9 • from a recorded macro instruction • from the direct selects - {Snapshot 4} Since snapshots can be recalled from any device (except RFRs) on the Ion network, snapshots may be affected by the type of device they are recalled on. If the recalling device does not have the same physical layout or has other limitations that differ from the recording device, Ion will map the snapshot to the best of its ability.
PAGE 13
ETC® Supplement Eos/Ion v1.8 Supplement to Operations Manual The following information is new for Eos Family software version 1.8. This document is supplemental to information in the Eos v1.7 Operations Manual and Ion v1.7 Operations Manual and should be used in conjunction with it. Mirror Mode Mirror Mode is used to mirror the displays of another device. When a device is in mirror mode, the only action allowed from that device is paging via the page keys and shut down/start up.
PAGE 14
ETC Supplement Eos/Ion v1.8 Displays When a device is placed in mirror mode, monitor 1 on the mirroring device matches external monitor 1 on the host, and monitor 2 matches external monitor 2 on the host. A client will mirror as many monitors as it has available. All formats used on the host device are shown on the mirroring device including flexichannel states, column widths, chosen parameters, and pages. Note: Desk settings are not mirrored. The CIA will open on monitor 1.
PAGE 15
ETC Supplement Eos/Ion v1.8 and last channels in the order are the end channels. • [5] [Thru] [1][0] [At] [1][0] [Thru] [3][0] [Fan]/{Fan} {Mirror} [Enter] - sets channel 1 to 30%, 2 to 20%, 3 to 10%, 4 to 20%, and 5 to 30%. • {Random} - The selected channels are put in a random order before fan is applied. • {Repeat} - The number of channels that are fanned before the pattern is repeated.
PAGE 16
ETC Supplement Eos/Ion v1.8 Fanning Timing and Delays Fanning timing and delays work exactly like fanning parameters. • [1] [Thru] [5] [Time] [6] [Thru] [1] [0] [Enter] - sets the discrete times for channel 1 to 6 seconds, 2 to 7 seconds, 3 to 8 seconds, 4 to 9 seconds, and 5 to 10 seconds. • [1] [Thru] [5] [Delay] [6] [Thru] [8] [Fan]/{Fan} {Mirror} [Enter] - sets the discrete delays of channel 1 to 8 seconds, 2 to 7 seconds, 3 to 6 seconds, 4 to 7 seconds, and 5 to 8 seconds.
